After the invention of the O-ring in the early 40’s of the last century, ERIKS was one of the pioneers to bring this product to the world market. We provide a wide assortment with one goal: to offer you the best solution with the perfect seal.

ERIKS O-rings: dedicated to the future

The most common type of static seal is the flexible elastomer O-ring. O-rings provide an affordable, simple to install seal.

▪ 15,000 different dimensions on stock

▪ Available in a variety of materials to suit every sealing application

▪ Produced in modern injection and compression moulding machines

▪ Compounds following international norms and controlled in our laboratories

▪ Fully moulded O-rings are manufactured to several international size standards,

incl. BS1806, BS4518, AS568, ISO 3601, JIS B2401 and DIN 3771

▪ Non-standard custom sizes, up to 2.5m (8ft) diameter can be produced in

a single moulded version to meet specific requirements, and even unlimited

diameter with our Vulc-O-rings

ERIKS O-ring most used compounds

Polymer type Compound reference

Hardness(IRHD) Temperature Application

NBR 36624 70 -30 to +120 °C Standard compound with good compression-set values and medium acrylonitrile content for use with oils, animal fats, acetylene, alcohols, fuels and many other fluids

NBR 47702 90 -30 to +120 °C Similar to NBR 36624 with higher hardness for higher pressure applications

FKM 51414 75 -20 to +200 °C General purpose compound with very good compression-set values at high temperatures and chemical resistance to oils, fats, fuels. Suitable for vacuum applications

FKM 514320 90 -20 to +200 °C Similar to FKM 51414 with higher hardness for higher pressure applications

EPDM 55914 70 -50 to +130 °C EPDM terpolymer sulphur cured - industrial standard EPDM O-ring compound with very good compression-set and good ozone, weathering and ageing resistance

EPDM 55985 68 -45 to +150 °C Good chemical resistance and better physical properties than standard sulphur cured EPDM-compounds. Many certificated for drinking water and food applications

VMQ 714177 70 -60 to +220 °C General purpose silicone with very good compression set and excellent physical and applicable in a wide temperature range

HNBR 88625 70 -30 to +150 °C Hydrogenated nitrile compound of standard quality, good steam resistance (up to 130 °C), particularly suitable for chemical and mechanical applications


Outperforming standard O-rings in dynamic applicationsX-rings

▪ Sealing is achieved by the diametrical squeeze in a right angled groove ▪ Lower diametrical squeeze than with O-rings as standard grooves are deeper ▪ More sealing capacity and a groove for lubrication; very favourable for dynamic sealing ▪ High stability for dynamic applications and more resistant to spiral failure

World’s best encapsulated O-ring for critical applications TEFLEX®

▪ High flexibility combined with the ultimate chemical resistance of Teflon® FEP/PFA ▪ Original Viton® or silicone cores with good compression set: no low quality compromise ▪ Available in all dimensions up to 5,000 mm in diameter, FDA compliant, USP Class VI ▪ Particularly suitable for food & pharmaceutical applications

Versatile sealing solution to improve your equipment lifetimeV-rings

▪ Ring rotates with the shaft and holds itself in position by its elastic fit on the shaft ▪ Serves as a dynamic sealing element as well as a flinger ▪ Sealing lip provides excellent protection against water spray and dust ▪ Standard materials include NBR or FKM for higher temperatures or aggressive media

Total flexibility to meet your specific needsExtrusions

▪ Extensive range of special cords in high-tech compounds ▪ Standard round cords in NBR, EPDM, FKM, VMQ, and CR ▪ Standard square and rectangular cords in VMQ, EPDM, FKM and CR ▪ Specialty extrusions in many materials and various hardnesses

The most economic solution for large non-standard diametersThe Vulc-O-rings

▪ O-ring from high-performance cord, similar quality as moulded O-rings ▪ Very low compression set values and available in FDA compliant quality ▪ Available in many materials, such as NBR, FKM, EPDM, VMQ, CR and HNBR ▪ No upper diameter restrictions and no moulds required - resulting in cost savings

Excellent back-up for high pressure applicationsBack-up rings

▪ Anti-extrusion ring, used to extend the operating pressure of an O-ring ▪ Axially compresses with pressure, increasing the radial width to close the extrusion gap ▪ Available thermoplastic materials include PTFE, PEEK and Glass filled PTFE ▪ Back-up rings are groove specific, please contact our sales team for detailed advice

High performance perfluoroelastomerKalrez® compounds last longer and seal more effectively than

other elastomers in demanding processing environments.

Kalrez® compounds are resistant to almost any chemical, solvent

including sour multi-phase fluids. Kalrez® parts offer extreme high

temperature stability, meet FDA/USP requirements for high purity

and deliver outstanding performance under pressure.

The high chemical resistance, high temperature, high purity seal for optimum performance in demanding applications.

Rely on Kalrez® in the harshest processing environments

Kalrez® can reduce your costs and improve your process by:

▪ Resisting degradation in harsh chemicals

▪ Maintaining sealing force at high temperatures to reduce

leakage

▪ Containing fewer ingredients that extract into the process

▪ Providing better vacuum sealing and lower outgassing in

semicon applications

▪ Meeting stringent FDA/USP regulations for purity and

cleanliness in food and pharmaceutical applications
